a) unilaterally released by Soetoro with NO OTHER action by Congress or any Agency,
b) NOT simply - and safely- wired to Iranian banks or recognized banks that could do business with Iran, and
c) paid out by loading up pallets of cash in various unmarked bills and various national currencies as part of the release upon compliance? This stunk from the get-go!
Maybe money laundering from drugs or human trafficking?
Got it.
